@pbsnews: The EPA has reportedly drafted a plan to eliminate all limits on greenhouse gas emissions from power plants, according to documents obtained by The New York Times. The power industry is one of the top sources of U.S. greenhouse gas emissions, which scientists say help drive climate change. Now, with the rise of artificial intelligence technology, demand on power plants is increasing, in large part due to AI’s reliance on data centers. PBS News’ Ali Rogin spoke with Kenza Bryan, climate reporter for The Financial Times, for more. #AI #Climatechange #emissions #EPA #News #politics

Maybe they should figure out how to do more computing with less power before they are allowed to build these data centers.

I'm worried about the Texas water supply...These data centers use water as coolant. But we already have a water shortage!!

Why aren’t we also talking about the residents outside of Memphis that are reporting breathing issues and high levels of smog in their town

So why aren't they asking AI to solve its own energy needs while protecting the environment?

The greatest achievement from the MAGA movement was making the average person believe they were for the average person. Billionaires are corporations are about to be rolling in more dough while the American citizen - and the world suffers

The Data center that I worked at in Phoenix AZ, used 36,000 gallons of water a day for the cooling towers to keep the computers cool

That climate change hasn’t been the central policy topic of every election for the last 10-15 years shows that we are a failed society. media and legislators are incapable of altruistic action under capitalism.

They’re putting some here in Texas like we don’t have a power grid held together with duct tape and prayers. Next they’re telling us to set our thermostats to 80 while in our 3rd week of 107F lmao we’re cooked cooked

Not to mention the millions of gallons of water they use per day to cool the data centers. There are more efficient ways to do this. They could ask their AI for a better way if they can't think of any ideas.
